In May 2019, Nancy J. Reid and Lisa D. Smith, Big Blend’s mother-daughter travel, radio and publishing team, will be back on the road traveling full-time on their ‘Love Your Parks Tour!’ Of course Priscilla, their ‘Queen of the Road’ sock monkey travel mascot, will be along for the ride!

“On this 3-5+ year journey, we will document, map and share stories about America’s parks and public spaces, routes and trails, historic sites and cultural landmarks, natural and geological wonders, local flavors and festive traditions, and of course, the communities and people!”

Through engaging and entertaining articles and event news, radio interviews and podcasts, photo and video features, interactive maps, and travel planning guides and directories, Nancy and Lisa are on a mission to inform and inspire travelers across the country and around the world to explore America’s beautiful and historical park destinations.

Love Your Parks Tour partner and sponsor opportunities range from host destinations and lodging facilities to photography and travel gear providers, as well as editorial, radio and video content sponsors, and business and destination profile features in online regional travel and relocation guides.
